Ironic this woman sends her kid to a liberal school , but doesn't want her daughter to have an open mind or different opinion.
Seems she wants her kid to give in to 'group think'.

My 3-year-old daughter is obsessed with Donald Trump.
This is a problem if 1) you live in New York City, 2) you are liberal, 3) your friends are liberal, 4) your daughter attends a liberal school and 5) your relatives are affected by the Trump administration’s travel ban.
Yassi, my daughter, attends the kind of school that made counseling available in the wake of the 2016 presidential elections. Parents stood together comforting one another on Nov. 9 in an act of collective mourning that I hadn’t seen since Sept. 11. This is probably exactly the type of school that the Trump voters were hating on with their epic middle finger raised to the elites of this country.
On that same morning, Yassi made few friends by screaming “Donald Trump!” at the top of her lungs in the crowded stairwell to her school. People whirled around to find the traitor. Red-faced and humiliated, I pulled her aside and said, “Shhhh, Yassi, we do not scream these things at school.” And so, an expletive was born, much more potent than any four-letter word.
I think a sense of humor is key re enjoying what kids bring to the tapestry of life. IMO, ages 3-8 (starting before age 3 with some kids) really are the 'kids will say the darndest things' years.
One December when Bush 43 was POTUS, I was walking through the area near the White House with the National Christmas Tree and all of the little 'state/territory' trees at night with my godson, his younger brother, and their dad. My godson, who was closer to his fourth birthday than his third at the time, started horsing around on the fence. He got this impish grin on his face, and I wondered what would happen next. He yelled one word...naked....pretty loudly....and nothing else. IIRC, his dad shushed him, told him to get off the fence, and he complied.
